Two years back, if you told me that I would be small and sexy and working for a gym, I would have laughed at you. I was in a different place then, mentally and physically, and to say I had low self esteem was a problem. I felt really bad about who I was, where I was going in life, […]
Online workouts
This was perfect for me, because I could select a personal trainer that had the sort of focus I was looking for, try them out, and then if I liked the first session I could book them going forward I like doing things on my own, so that when I accomplish something I know that I did it myself! Periodically […]
Too anxious to go to a gym
I have consistently been a social scaredy cat, or as our folks care about to tell people a little peculiar. I am in my 40s now, and so I grew different than you probably did. These days I’m sure I would have been diagnosed with some kind of social anxiety disorder or something, even given some medication for it. Before […]
She feels better after working out
My wife Cara was a little chunky when I married her. She didn’t care about the way she looked, but I liked curves so it worked for me. Still, what I didn’t like was her low self esteem, because what was sexy to me was fat to her. I loved her and supported her, and eventually I convinced her to […]
Starting off slow
I really like smoking weed and I care about smoking a lot of it. You might think this would get in the way of my family life or my work life, however it doesn’t. The only way it seems to get in the way of a good, healthy lifestyle is when it comes to my weight. I get the munchies […]
Yoga to help my weight gain
In the foolishness of my younger days, I never listened to anyone in my family when they told me that my metabolism would change! I was super thin as a kid, and I ate like I just never would put on a pound. So all the way up until school, I was just thin and there was nothing I could […]
This makes getting the gym much more motivating
My personal history with the local gym is not a love story by any stretch. Up until recently, it’s been a love-hate tale. I loved being in shape but I hated going to the local gym. I seemed like such a great idea when I got that gym membership and felt the initial benefits of a workout program. But, I […]
Yoga studio changed it all for me
The was nothing that I was less motivated to do than go to the gym. When I got home from work, I tried to pump myself up to change and then head out to the gym. However, more often than not, I just got out of my work clothes and got into the couch. It was just so ebay to […]
Good changes come with gym membership
It was more than evident that the way I was living my life just had to change. While I wasn’t on a dangerous, self destructive path, I certainly wasn’t taking care of myself the way I wanted to be taking care of myself. The time for that to change was more than apparent. I had a gym membership that I […]
It’s a whole new world for me at the health and fitness center
It’s no longer something I hide. My addictions are something that make up my whole self. The sooner I realized that and accepted it, the sooner I could not be a slave to those addictions. I have dealt with addiction much of my adult life and it has caused a great deal of pain and turmoil. The big change for […]
